Book Description

NY Contemporary 1997. . First Edition. 8vo. 241pp. The Greatest True Baseball Stories Ever Told. Hardcover with dustwrapper: Fine/Fine; dustwrapper mylar-protected. 'As New'. Open to any page and you'll find the delightful yarns, quotes, foibles, and folklore that wrap the grand old game like so much twine around the innards of a baseball. Bobby Brown, Yankee third baseman of yore, explains why teammate Yogi Berra had such an unconventional strike zone; an unassuming North Carolina pitcher named Jimmy Hunter reveals the truth behind his nickname, "Catfish"; and prankster Ken Griffey Jr., in a rare turn of the tables, plays the April Fool. With more than 150 anecdotes from America's national pastime, this is the perfect antidote to rainouts and winter blues.
